Mental Health Services

Mental Health Team

While every family has its own issues, there are some challenges that are specific to military families.
The MFRC has a team of mental health professionals that support military family members offering a variety of services for adults, couples, teenagers and children.

Our Mental Health services include:

Free and confidential short-term counselling for individuals, couples and families

Life & social skill-building

Parenting workshops and education

Deployment support for children and adults

Divorce, grief and loss counselling

Telephone sessions available

Additional services are available for the families, as well as trauma, symptoms of PTSD and other mental health concerns. The MFRC understands the military lifestyle and can help you understand and access services available.

Francophone Mental Health Services

The MFRC offers free confidential services to Francophone families of Canadian Forces members. The Francophone Mental Health Services coordinator is a dedicated link to all Trenton MFRC and community support services. Therapeutic counselling for adults, teens and children is available.

Bilingual Women’s Services

We are proud to offer bilingual support for all women of the military and civilian community who reside in the Hastings and Prince Edward County. Individual sessions are available by appointment to women (and children) who are experiencing stress, tension, domestic violence and/or sexual violence in their present or past relationships.

Women’s Services and therapeutic support groups and programs specifically designed to meet the needs of bilingual military and civilian families are offered through Hélène. She works in conjunction with our mental health team and community partners to offer a wide range of general support and services for clients.

Family Liaison Officer

The Family Liaison Officer (FLO) is a Military Family Resource Centre (MFRC) social worker who is part of your local Integrated Personnel Support Centre (IPSC) team. The FLO connects the two centres to ensure the widest variety of support is offered to families of military personnel who are coping with an illness or injury, and families of the fallen.

The FLO is available to help families cope with all phases of the member's recovery, rehabilitation and reintegration.
